Do you believe that social media should be used for marketing? It may surprise you to find out that practically any use of social media could be considered marketing. You're using a public medium to share your ideas, thoughts, experiences, or beliefs. You may not be doing it for financial gain, but you can't deny that you are marketing your very opinion by sharing it openly.

Should social media be used for marketing?

[Mark Lee]

Should YouTube be used for asking silly questions?

Ok, where's Brandon?

the basis behind social media IS marketing as much as it is to keep people connected.

Social Networking websites use user data for marketing purposes.

Professional entrepreneurs use it for marketing.

Even normal users typically use social media to promote/market themselves and talents even if not necessarily for immediate financial gain.

CHRIS , I agree.

I am using social media for marketing. Facebook also is really a big help but I have my own site too.. Social media are all useful as long as we use it in a good way. It helps me a lot.

I'm sick and tired of having companies use facebook. Just give me the official site of the deal and I'll take it.

Yes social media should be used for marketing. But the biggest mistake that happens is that people attack it with lots of energy, sign up to twitter, facebook, linked in, etc, it doesn't work and they get bored. Why doesn't it work, because they didn't take a step back and decide what they wanted to achieve from social media, before posting like crazy.

If the conversation is over, why are you still replying, idiot?. You clearly lack any logical thinking, so it's best for you if you spend your time reading smart books instead of wasting it on youtube comments.
